Omg thank you for posting! I’m also trying to keep an eye for a studio too, and I work in Fells Point. It’s annoying how Chasen took up like half of Mt. Vernon properties and Fells Point.

I used to live in one of Bay Management apartments in Mt. Vernon, and I would not want to go back. I used to live in the building on St. Paul with a local theater club in the basement, and I had too many complaints.

One time, the maintenance would attempt to “fix” our super out of date shower system, and left my roommate and I shower less for a week (I had to shower in the gym) until they hired outside contractors to replace the parts.

The other instance was that they used to have trash rooms every floor in the first month or two of our lease, until they decided to cut the cost, and make all of us hauling trash to the back of the building, which can be dangerous in winter, because you have to walk down steps on the side of the building to get to the back of the building.

The closet rod kept falling apart to the point that I had to ask my dad to get bigger screw Mount to hold it, and it fell off again bc the wall were old af and cheaply painted/patched.

Oh that sounds awful! I’m sorry you had to go through that. My landlord in Bolton hill was unlicensed and I had a lot of pest issues. They never quite fixed it as I still talk to my old neighbor and she gives me all the tea sigh

I thought the subreddit would have a comprehensive sidebar by now so that’s why I asked. I know the community associations list apartment complexes but they don’t provide reviews so it’s always helpful to get folks who aren’t homeowners and their good experiences from here!
